Firm has received complaints from patients who are unable to exit MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) mode on their IPGs (Implantable Pulse Generators).
Abbott Medical is recalling Proclaim XR 5 Implantable Pulse Generators (Model 3660) because patients have reported being unable to exit MRI mode. This device is used for spinal cord stimulation and may interfere with MRI scans if not properly managed.
The device's inability to exit MRI mode during scans can cause patients to remain in the MRI sequence longer than intended. This may lead to discomfort or incomplete scans but does not pose a direct safety risk like injury or death.

Check for the model number 3660 on the device. The product is used for spinal cord stimulation and has specific serial numbers listed in the recall notice.
